Remo Coated Emperor X Snare Drumhead

The EMPEROR X is the thickest snare head ever made by REMO. It was changed into a production item after more and more artists began ordering them as custom heads.

Mike Fasano (Warrant) who was the first to create the buzz about the 20-mil head, loved the idea of a "snare head with this much attitude". He in turn got John Tempesta (Rob Zombie) and Matt Sorum (Velvet Revolver), Tre Cool (Green Day) and Travis Barker (The Transplants) hooked on the head too, and the list continues to grow.

Marketing efforts have fueled the demand in stores and made this one of REMO's best introduced heads ever. For hard hitters, you'll love the sound and durability.

quick to replace and tune and has held tune for a month with 3x a week playing and sound only seems to get better.
Ease of Use:
very simple and glad we chose this head.

five times over. Can not go wrong with this. Dont believe it try it out. You will not be dissapointed.

not needed.
The Wow Factor:
Price and sound are the wow factor. This is top of the line.
